Supervised Learning Classification Applications in Fault Detection and Diagnosis: An Overview of Implementations in Unmanned Aerial Systems
2022-08-18
Abstract Statistical machine learning classification methods have been widely used in the fault detection analysis in several engineering domains. This motivates us to provide in this article an overview on the application of these methods in the fault diagnosis strategies and also their successful use in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) systems. Different existing aspects including the implementation conditions, offline design, and online computation algorithms as well as computation complexity and detection time are discussed in detail. Evaluation and validation of these aspects have been ensured by a simple demonstration of the basic classification methods and neural network techniques in solving the fault detection and diagnosis problem of the propulsion system failure of a multirotor UAV. A testing platform of an Hexarotor UAV is completely realized.
